Their first email address may have been a gmail.com one for example and they still have it. I mean a friend of mine still has a hotmail address from the late 1990s that works.

"I can keep buying this stuff, and can't practically avoid it, therefore it doesn't affect me." Most people don't want to dedicate hours a day to a "vote with your feet" attempt that will not even register on corporations' balance sheets.
